United States (Title 17, USC) which governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of

and administered by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) under the provisions of

Processed by
Staff Archivist, June 2010. Previously restricted materials are added as they are released.
Scope and Content
The materials in FOIA 2010-0767-F are a selective, not necessarily all inclusive, body of documents
responsive to the topic of the FOIA. This collection is very closely related to FOIA 2010-0769-F.
Researchers should consult the archivist about related materials.
The White House Fellowship Program began in 1964, with the creation of the President’s Commission
on White House Fellowships. Largely the idea of John Gardner, President of the Carnegie Corporation,
the program was created by Executive Order 11183 signed by President Lyndon Johnson on October 3,
1964. Johnson’s order read, “It is in the National interest that our future leaders in all walks of life have
opportunities to observe firsthand the important and challenging tasks of America government.”
Gardner envisioned a program where men and women from the United States could serve at the highest
levels of government. His hope was that they would then take their experience back to their
communities and increase civic engagement on a local, state, and national level.

�Eleven to nineteen fellows are selected each year from over 1,000 applicants. These fellows serve for
one year as full-time employees of the Federal Government; typically working within the Executive
Branch. There is no requirement for age, education, or profession. However, no member of the Federal
government may serve with the exception of career military. Through working within the executive
branch these fellows have intimate contact with leaders at the highest levels of government and often
travel with senior leaders of the administration.
In 1994, the program celebrated its thirtieth year. During that thirty year period there have been over
400 White House Fellows. Many well respected and well known American leaders have participated in
the White House Fellows Program. These include: Robert Haas, Dana Mead, Julia Taft, Henry
Cisneros, Colin Powell, Dennis Blair, Mary Schiavo, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Dr. Sanjay Gupta and a
host of other business and government leaders. To date, the program has had more than 625 Fellows.
The 2010-2011 class of thirteen was named by President Barack Obama on June 22, 2010.
Responsive records were found primarily in two White House Office of Records Management
(WHORM) subject areas: FG233, President’s Commission on White House Fellowships and PE010,
Personnel Management-Training and Orientation. These records are largely concerned with the
selection of Commission members, National finalists and the daily operation of the White House
Fellowship program.
System of Arrangement
Records that are responsive to this FOIA request were found in one collection area—Clinton
Presidential Records: WHORM Subject Files. WHORM Subject files are processed at the document
level.
The White House Office of Records Management (WHORM) contains a variety of series created to
organize and track documents and correspondence. The WHORM Subject File was compiled by the
White House Office of Records Management and is a series of categories designated by a letter/number
combination. In addition there are WHORM, WHORM Counsel, WHORM (CL), WHORM (OP),
WHORM (Too Late), WHORM (Various Offices), and WHORM Alpha Project series.
WHORM files are processed at the document level; whereas, Staff and Office Files are processed at the
folder level, that is, individual documents are not selected and removed from a folder for processing.
While this method maintains folder integrity, it frequently results in the incidental processing of
documents that are not wholly responsive to the subject area.
Please note that a single asterisk “*” indicates that the category is entirely processed.
The following is a list of documents and folders processed in response to FOIA 2010-0767-F:
